July 2004

I think I'm the last person to see Florian Tremp's amazing series No Country for Small Men—a collection of 48 narrative dioramas constructed and photographed by the artist, loosely inspired by the Coen Brothers' film—but I'll point it out nonetheless. Most of the images are just fantastic (the second page best of all).

I'm afraid I can't please everybody – I take time off, I come back with multiple posts, I slow down, I speed up... I wish I could help with this, but I will unfortunately have to maintain the unscheduled pace!

Maybe you would be interested in the work of Emily Vey Duke and Cooper Battersby. They were finalists for this year's Sobey Prize and have produced 5 micro-dioramas (alongside a film and installation).http://www.flickr.com/photos/artgalleryns/5096968603/
